Default Talk me out of this

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee talk me out of buying them all lol. I'm such a gadget girl...but expensive, but I think maybe worth it. Watched youtube videos on these rulers...Ok Ok I know I'm sounding like I'm trying to convince myself...I have them in the cart right now lol.... go check them out and let me know what you think. Maybe their cheaper somewhere else.

You don't need them. If you have others use them. jna

To complicated and expensive for me. I'd need someone to "show" me.

Do you use the ones you already have??? That may help you decide if you are wasting your money or spending it wisely.

I love my quilters rulers I have. I can't talk you into another brand. I will mention each ruler you buy has to have storage space and is money not spent on fabric. Maybe just 1.

I love gadgets but I don`t think that I would really `need`any of these rulers. A long ruler, a couple of squares and the tri recs set are the ones I really use.

from one gadget girl to another, take a look at this brand: http://creativegridsusa.com/ They are also expensive, the same price all over the internet. As someone mentioned, if you are not using the rulers you have, think twice about buying more.

Hope this helps with your decision.

That does look handy- but you would always need a screwdriver handy.

I love my easy angles - they are my favorite.

But maybe you should get one of them and see how you like it. I would get the one that would cut when the fabric is folded in half.

I am a gadget girl also, but!!! Do you really think you will use them often? I have lots of rulers that I have yet to use and that is all in the last 8 years and probably won't use them ever. I keep going back to my old standard ones.

Yep, too pricey and complicated for me. I find we can get too many gadgets. I would dump the cart, unless you really really want one, if that is the case, just get it and enjoy!
